Problem setting Remote Desktop session limits in Windows 2019 server

I am trying to set individual remote desktop session limits for local users in Windows 2019 server. I have verified that all group policies for Computer and User configuration are NOT enabled. RDS is NOT part of an active directory or domain.

In each local user except for 2 users, I set End disconnected session at 10 min, Active session limit at never, and Idle Session limit at 2 hours. End Session is checked for session limit reached.
For the other two users, End a disconnected session is set for 2 days.
For me, the admin, everything is set to never

Sessions remain active indefinitely regardless of the idle or disconnected status. These are the same settings I used on our previous server, Windows 2012 Datacenter where they functioned as expected.

Any advice for a fix?
